I know...I know...

Yes Folks, it's been awhile. I've got a lot of photos to post, but since it takes long enough to download them - I'll do it in installments.

Since the last post, it felt like the renovation was going very slow. Plumbing, electrical and framing is not as showy as demolition. Every stud looks like the next stud , and there is so much stuff that needs to go in the walls before the drywall goes up. So, the changes have been less drastic...and so, less photos to show off. Here's a few photos from June 15th & 21st.

This is me eating a bagel in the main bath:


This is Ben's handy work for the main bath shower & bath rough-in:


This is Arjen's pet beaver:


This is a nail puncturing a pex pipe, whoopsie...


This is the water line from the nail in the pex pipe. We were really lucky here, the nail held the water until we left the house...then once the pressure built up, it created a nice fine mist. Fortunately, the water didn't make it past the sub-floor and the wet-vac took care of most of it. The wood dried very nicely, no warping, no mold.
